Bug? Flow not working?

I've noticed a small bug that I can't get solved. Maybe you can take a look at it.
There is an automatism in my app "Absences". 
This automatism creates automatically so called "daily workloads" when an absence is created. One workload per working day of the absence.
I have built a loop for this (see screenshot attached).

The funny thing: 
The loop works fine when a NEW absence is created.
However, if an existing absence is adjusted, e.g. in the date, the automatism is triggered, but the loop runs only once, although actually the conditions of the IF loop are still given.
I don't check it.

  Hey Milenko,

  That's not a bug but a bad flow design :) 
  You should never create a loop by letting a flow trigger itself again and again. PWA will suppress that. 
  It's cleaner, better and safer to have a loop inside the flow by using FOR EACH and variables.

  Hey Rainer,
  
  thanks for your reply.

  How can I set up a FOR EACH loop with by day / variable. I thought, that's only possible per item?

  Best,

  Milenko
